What They Discovered Hiding In A Warehouse Is Straight From A Horror Movie

♠ Posted by Unknown in ,,
In downtown Hollywood, California, there's a warehouse full of human bodies. Well...at least they're supposed to look like human bodies. If you can get past the doorway without fleeing in terror, you'll see that these are actually fake bodies used for Hollywood productions.
Still, that doesn't make them any less creepy. Actually, I think it somehow makes them even creepier...

A few months ago, Reddit user bfilmmaker posted a few pictures of the "body" warehouse on the site.

Turns out, bfilmmaker works for the prop house in Los Angeles that owns the warehouse.

Those eyes...so terrifying.

Just waiting for this one to wake up.

The one in the back is looking right at the camera.

This creepy George Clooney look-alike is getting a little too close for comfort...

And so is this guy.

I think this one is supposed to be a child.

He looks angry. Very angry.

I have to give bfilmmaker credit for actually continuing to work at this place despite the abundance of creepy fake bodies. I guess I could handle it, too, but I'd live in constant fear of the lights going out and the bodies coming to get me.

What Was Found Hiding Beneath This University Is Shocking Beyond Words

♠ Posted by Unknown in ,,,,
Everyone wants to leave a legacy. After all, life is short, and as people grow older, they worry about being forgotten forever. Sure, few people achieve a degree of fame, but everyone dreams of leaving something nice to be remembered by, hopefully not fading away for the rest of time.
Unfortunately, some people don't get to achieve a legacy until well after their deaths. Such is the case with a recent discovery of a Medieval graveyard under Cambridge University. After centuries of obscurity, hundreds of once-forgotten souls will now have their stories heard.

The University of Cambridge has known about the mysterious graveyard under its buildings since the 1950s. However, the extent of the burial was never known until now.

When archaeologists dug in, they were shocked to find 400 complete skeletons.

They also discovered the remains of what could be as many as 1,000 more people.

Originally a graveyard across from a hospital, the bodies date back to somewhere between the 13th and 15th centuries.

The graveyard was the final resting spot of "poor scholars and other wretched persons."

The deceased were almost exclusively males.

There were only a few women discovered, and no infants found anywhere on site.

It took almost three years to excavate every skeleton.

The dig took place between 2010 and 2012, though the photos were recently released for the first time.

Although we'll probably never know their names, we'd like to think these souls are happy we know they existed. Their legacy finally lives on after 800 years, and they can now rest in peace.
